Five Seconds Of Billboard Number Ones: 1956-1992

The internet is a wondrous thing. A user on the website SoundCloud.com has uploaded a montage of five seconds or less of every number one pop single from 1956-1992. It’s a true sonic trip down memory lane and I wanted to be sure to share it with you.

The interface on the player makes it easy to move around once it loads and create a fun guessing game for yourself. Start the player in a random spot and see if you can guess what year you’ve landed on. Most of the songs you’ll probably recognize, but if you need a little help, you can always pull up the Billboard Hot 100 lists to follow along. It’s sure to bring back plenty of memories. Feel free to share in the comments below and get the conversation going.
